then will come the fireworks. He ID
the editor of The London Christian
Herald and a prophet.
A reporter had long conversation
with the prophet in his Office in the
Bible house last evening. and the re-
porter has made up his mind to leave
off cigarettes. give up all his bad hab.
its and join church, in hopes that he
will be ticketed through the millen.

for a thousand years.
Mr.. Baxter looks like prophet. He
has full gray beard, q thoughtful eye.
and brown wig.
ut is certain thing that there will
be great European war within three
or four years." said he.
How do you know" asked the re-
porter.
because in Daniels prophetic writ
ings and in the Book of Revelations il
states that ten years before the end
there will be great war, and the Ro
man empire be restored to the same
political divisions"
..You base your prophecy on biblica;
statements entirely, thenp"
'tAlmost exclusively. though there
are other outside facts in perfect ac-
cordance with the main principles tina,
enter into it."
"And how do You locate the date for
the end of the world?"
Not the end of the world, we don't
believe in that,-but the end of this
dispensation and the beginning of the
millennium. 1t is simple enough
matter,-n one can help understand
ing it,-and it is as sure to be true as
the bible itself There are many things
that show the end will come in 1900.
Perhaps the most simple and generally
accepted is the biblical statement that
as it took six days to make the world.
and there was seventh day to rest,
the world will last for six days of a
thousand years each and seventh day
of a thousand years that shall be the
millennium. Chronological record
shows that there were just four thous-
and years, from Adam to the birth oil
Christ. SO that in the year 1900 A. d.
the time would be fulfilled

tend her possessions to the Rhyme. The
conflict will not be confined to these
two nations. however. 1t will be a
general European conflict. as the TWEEN
ty-three countries which now exist
must be resolved into ten; the five in
the western or Latin half being Britain.
France, Spain, Italy. and Austria, and
the five in the eastern or Greek half be-
ing Greece. Egypt, Syria. Turkey, and
the Balkan states. They will be in one
confederation, and will be all king
dops. SO that the republic Of France
and Queen Victoria's reign have but
little longer to run, you see. When
that war occurs it will be the fulfill
ment of the first great sign"
"What will become of Ireland p'
cit must be separated from England,
as it was not in the Roman empire.
just what sort Of government Ireland
will have we do not know, but she Ger
tainly will have parliament of her
own in Dublin. All this is prophesied
by the ten-toed immage of Daniel and
the ten-horned goat. But then comes
the little eleventh horn, signifying a
rising king. that wakes great and
strong. The beast is crimson, show
ing the red republic Communism and
SO on. That eleventh king will be the
head of the communist. He will first
come into power somewhere in Asia
Minor. then become king of Syria, and
then the emperor of the Roman empire
He will get his power through the
communist and the Roman church,
that will side with them, and for two
years the pope will have great tempo

will enter into compact with the He
brews by which they shall return to
Palestine. Then he will rule the whole
world"
"Who will this bep''
'In Revelation it is stated that it will
be Napolean. probably Jerome, the
present head of the Bonaparte family,
as in appearance he exactly answers TO
the description. He will be the Anti
Christ and will prosecute Christians,
killing thousands Of them by the guillo-
tine. Then will come three and one
half years of tribulations. Then there
will be civil war all over the world"
Twill this country suffer-"
1.-The labor organization will continue
to grow stronger, until ten years from
now, they will overturn the govern
ment and take the power into their
own hands. Then will come famine
pestilence. earthquakes, and terrible
troubles until the secoud coming COM
ing of Christ. when the earth will be
nearly depopulated and the righteous
only left to enjoy the millennium of a
thousand years"
who will be the last pope?''
Probably Cardinal Lucien Napoleon.
The course taken by DIR. McGlynn is
only little ahead OF the times"
''Are your prophetic ideas entertain
